no dyno yet, the motor needs a full break-in prior to going WOT/boost.
specs, as requested:
j32a2 block
mdx rotating assembly
machined RL pistons
j32a2 heads, ported/matched
j32a2 tb/pilot IM
RDX injectors

How is it a j36 if it has a j32 block with a j32 head?
still very nice though, awesome build.

I sense some jealousy!

No jealousy at all to be honest, I'm just a perfectionist and seeing something labeling the engine as a 3.2 when it's really much more would drive me up the wall. Nobody that sees the engine bay is going to think it's stock, so the "sleeper concept" only applies to the outside of the vehicle.

EDIT:
If it had a manual transmission, then yes I'd be jealous of the engine setup. I won't drive an automatic unless it's a truck/SUV.

lol, whoa brad, i'm a perfectionist too, and do my OWN work for this exact reason, and can tell you that "nobody who see's the engine bay is automatically going to think it's stroked to j36" either. Guaranteed they will think it's a simple j32 swap, thus, keeping the valve cover shroud will maintian somewhat of a sleepy look. granted, i've thought about having a 3.6L plate machined/painted to mimic the stock badge, so i understand your logic here...all in due time!!!

as for the MT, damn buddy, this is the second "dreaded AT" comment you've made about the car. how long has my swap been complete? 3 weeks! when i save a little more $$, you can bet on the fact that the 6mt will be in there! you haven't said one positive thing about the car since i've posted pics here OR v6p :ugh2:
